ALL CAPS ORIGINAL POSTS SCARE ME!
So do BREAKING NEWS banners on TV.

After living through the Vietnam War, when
"We interrupt this broadcast..." meant more
soldiers and civilian personnel had died and when the network news
ran the names, ranks, and hometowns of the dead
soldiers and civilian personnel... BREAKING NEWS and
ALL CAPS POSTS still freak me out.

Now I'm seeing ALL CAPS REAL ESTATE ADS, and all I can
think of is "DESPERATE TO SELL! PLEASE READ THIS
AD!"

and even those ALL CAPS ads scare me for a moment.

Thanks for letting me rant.

Delilah
